'The second volume in the Christian spirituality trilogy covers the period from 1150 to 1600 and deals, in effect, with three quite different Christian traditions. The Roman Catholic and Eastern Orthodox churches had already broken apart in the eleventh century. The Protestant Reformation split Western Christianity in the sixteenth century, and by the year 1600 European Protestantism had taken on three basic forms: Lutheran, Reformed, and Anabaptist.'
